Asset Location

See this 2019 paper on the same topic for my most recent views: https://www.pwlcapital.com/wp-content...

Tax planning is one way that investors can keep more of their returns. Asset location is a form of tax planning. Note that I am not talking about asset allocation, which is deciding how much of each asset class you should hold. Asset location is the practice of holding certain asset classes in certain account types. For example, holding bonds in the RRSP, and Canadian stocks in the taxable account to minimize the overall tax drag on returns.
